Raymond Stuwe

Raymond Stuwe, born in Zurich, Switzerland, has woven a vibrant journey across Bielefeld, Germany, Bangkok, Thailand, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas (USA). Currently, he calls La Gomera, the Canary Islands, his home. A seasoned poker enthusiast, Raymond's path took a captivating turn at the age of 32 when his love for poker led him to the vibrant city of Las Vegas. Transitioning from a marketing professional behind the poker scene, he evolved into a poker professional, making significant entries into prestigious tournaments such as the World Series of Poker, The Asian Poker Tour, ECPoker Tour, and the Irish Poker Open.

Since 1978, David Bowie's music and free spirit have been a profound influence on Raymond. Following Bowie's passing in 2016, Raymond's artistic journey commenced, giving birth to 'StuRayArt.' For him, painting is a direct reconnection with the joy of drawing experienced in childhood. "It was the same feeling when I was six; the recognition was sensational."
